Lu Ying went inside, turned around and closed the door. Seeing Hu Mingmei standing with his back to him, he didn't dare to go up and ask what was wrong. He could only stand behind Hu Mingmei and whisper, "Second Master!"
It took Hu Mingmei a long time to respond to Lu Ying. He turned around, sat down, poured himself a cup of hot tea, and only after drinking it did he feel calmer. "Lu Ying, I have a question to ask you!"
"Please speak!" Lu Ying said, "Is there anything Second Master needs me to do?"
"No!" Hu Mingmei took a deep breath, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke with a strange expression, "If a girl changes clothes and someone sees her, what will she do?"
"That goes without saying!" Seeing that Hu Mingmei only had one question and there was nothing serious that he needed to do, he immediately relaxed, sat down on the stool opposite Hu Mingmei, and said seriously, "Then the girl only has one way out: death!"
"Is it that serious?" Hu Mingmei's heart skipped a beat, and his expression became even stranger. If you looked closely, you could see that Hu Mingmei's face had turned black!
“Of course!” Lu Ying said matter-of-factly. “A young lady’s reputation is so important. Even if someone sees her changing clothes, it’s unacceptable. It’s like losing her innocence. She either has to marry the person who saw her changing clothes or die. But even if she marries a lecherous man, she won’t be happy. It’s better to die.”
Well, when Hu Mingmei came back, he didn't think things were that serious, but now that Bai Nuo's life or death has been involved, he's become a lecher.
What should I do? Hu Mingmei's mind was in complete turmoil!
"Then!" Hu Mingmei looked at Lu Ying, who seemed completely unconcerned, and couldn't help but ask, "If you saw a girl changing clothes, what would you do?"
"Marry her!" Lu Ying said matter-of-factly. "I saw her changing clothes, so she's my woman, and I should marry her!"
Hu Mingmei felt her breathing becoming difficult, and speaking was also becoming challenging. "You have absolutely no feelings for that girl? Even though you've only just met her?"
"Second Master!" Lu Ying looked at Hu Mingmei as if he didn't understand anything. "What's so important about feelings? Is it more important than that girl's life? Besides, feelings can be cultivated slowly. Like my parents, before they got married, they had never even seen what each other looked like, and they didn't know if the other was a cat or a dog, but now, aren't they doing just fine?"
"Oh!" Hu Mingmei gave a blank "oh," "Can't we just give her money as compensation?"
"Oh, Second Master!" Lu Ying looked at Hu Mingmei strangely and said disapprovingly, "How can you be so naive? Is money so great? Who knows, that girl is heartbroken and ashamed right now. No, who knows, she might not even want to die, but if you give her money like this, she might immediately commit suicide. You see her changing clothes and then give her money, isn't that too insulting? This is treating her like a prostitute. She's a perfectly good girl, why should she be treated like that?"
Now the last straw in Hu Mingmei's heart had been broken!
Oh no, it's all his fault! Why did he have to get close to Bai Nuo? Bai Nuo had no direct evidence that the thing was related to her or that she knew its whereabouts. It was all just his own suspicion. Now look what's happened, Bai Nuo is about to commit suicide!
What has he done?! Not only has he ruined this girl's reputation, but he's also going to kill himself. If Bai Nuo dies, what will happen to her grandmother and brother?
She has elderly parents and young children to care for, and she has to take care of them all by herself.
If Bai Nuo dies, what will happen to the other two? Will they die too?
That's terrible, three lives are gone in an instant!
Oh no!
"Second Master, what's wrong with you? You weren't the one who watched the girl change clothes, were you? Who did you watch change clothes?" After rambling on for a while, Lu Ying belatedly realized that if someone asked you, "If you knew what your friend did, what would you do?", usually, the friend they were referring to was themselves.
Because he was embarrassed to let others know that he had done something shameful, he used "friend" as a substitute, but that friend didn't actually exist.
After he finished speaking, he belatedly remembered this matter. Then he looked at Hu Mingmei's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot. His complexion was even worse than when he had an attack of his illness.
As Lu Ying looked at it, her heart suddenly skipped a beat, and she asked cautiously.
"How could that be!" Hu Mingmei immediately retorted loudly. After saying that, she felt it sounded a bit like she was trying to cover something up, so she flicked her robe and said calmly, "Would I be that kind of person?"
Lu Ying shook her head blankly, completely bewildered as to why Hu Mingmei had changed her mind so quickly. "No!"
"Hmph!" Hu Mingmei snorted arrogantly, looking down at Lu Ying. "What are you still doing sitting here? Have you finished everything? You don't need to teach Bai Yu anymore? I'm not trying to criticize you, but since you've chosen to teach others and become their mentor, you should put your heart into it. Don't always be so careless and mislead others!"
Lu Ying: "..." What's wrong with Second Master? He's talking so strangely. And why is he taking his anger out on him? What did he do wrong?
However, Hu Mingmei was his master, and whatever his master said went. As a subordinate, he could not object. Immediately, Lu Ying stood up and said solemnly, "Yes, Your subordinate will do it right away!"
